Polished would look nice (post #16)...

:O 239whp from a 3400 with no 3500 parts?

Here is a quote from MMS's website
Quote:
207 cubic inches never felt so powerful, especially without boost. JP's Grand Am holds the record for the most powerful naturally aspirated 3400, putting down an impressive 227.1 whp and 194.8 wtq.

as usual, Milzy is full of shit..


Yes, Jason's 3400 Cavalier dyno'd 239 WHP with a MMS stage 2 cam, ported top end, headers, 3500 UIM/65mm TB and a few other misc things.

It is a 5 speed though...

agreed on the 5 speed vs auto part, if that GA is really putting down 227whp then it's probably making the same, maybe more, than jason, at the crank. BUT, jason is putting down around 250lb/ft of torque.... and if that GA is putting down less than me(202lb/ft) well....... it's still slow

It goes through belt tensioners quickly and doesn't run right all the time. Those are Milzy's words.

thats just like milzy's stage 1 cam that puts out now folks hold on to your pants a whopping 5hp over stock.

i dont know what he did to the pcm's but the one i bought and was running in my old 3400 before it wanted to drink coolant and in the new one for a few months till i got dhp, that thing was throwing crazy amounts of knock and i wasnt even getting on the throttle.

i like some of the parts milzy has i got his solid trans mount on the grand am and i think thats about it. he keeps bullshitting about producing headers for the 3400 grand am guys but i dont see tha happening.

if he would throw some specs up with the cams he's selling then he might sell a few more but i wouldnt buy one without knowing what i was getting, thats why i went with ben's.

Silly me for thinking I'm spending too much on my car. The spending bar has just been raised MUCH higher.

I hope this engine lives up to the money put into it. It would be a real shame to see it underperform.
